Synopsis

When Jan Frischof, a dying elderly man, gives a deathbed confession too unbelievable to be true, journalist Heloise Kaldan immediately knows there’s a deeper story to uncover. Her gut soon proves to be right—Jan immediately backtracks and warns her that they will both be in danger if she asks any more questions. Could this kind and elderly man really be a cold-blooded killer? Heloise quickly realizes that this is a darker, and far more complicated, investigation. Jan is clearly afraid of something, but who or what he’s afraid of could be a dangerous question for Heloise to find the answer to. As she digs deeper, Heloise begins to see that Jan's confession is connected to a string of decades-old disappearances. But next of kin and police are lying to her at every turn, and she has no idea what else Jan could be hiding. Enlisting her friend, detective inspector Erik Schäfer, Heloise begins her descent into the past, unsure of what she will unearth.

This series just gets better and better and darker as they go along. What a book. After a slowish start, it really ramped up, and that ending just blew my mind. What the??? It has been a very long time since a book got me like that. I can't wait to see what happens next. Heloise and Erik are such gre......more

Goodreads review by Kirsten

Like the 2 others it took me about 2 hours to read. I think this one has got the best plot, but there was a part, a strand of the plot which was not fully unfolded and that was a bit annoying. How can you start going down the alley with human trafficking and not fully explore that line of investigat......more

Goodreads review by Marcel

Endlich ist er da, der dritte Band der Reihe um Heloise Kaldan und Erik Schäfer und dieser hört sich wieder mega spannend an: Eigentlich wollte Journalistin Heloise Kaldan nur einen Artikel über Sterbebegleitung schreiben. Doch als sie sich mit dem todkranken Jan Fischhof anfreundet, beginnt ihr die......more
